The tuk-tuk service to the town was always available and fast. our room, a beautiful bungalow garden view, was spacious and tidy. i liked that the restaurant overlooked the sea. The breakfast was quite good.

Acceptable stay near the beach

beautiful location great facilities tuk-tuk service limited breakfast low water pressure limited shuttle

The location is beautiful with views of various islands. It offers great facilities for couples and families. You can often have the beach almost entirely to yourself. The tuk-tuk shuttle service into town made transportation stress-free (I really appreciated that).

The breakfast selection was limited, a la carte only. It was hard to choose. The shower water had low pressure at times.

smooth service breakfast egg station fresh omelets

The complimentary tuktuk service was really useful. it brought me right to the town center, and catching a tricycle was easy. calling for the tuktuk was quick and smooth! the breakfast egg station was quite good. I enjoyed the fresh omelets.

the bathroom felt a bit small and could use some maintenance.
